2017 Road Tax Changes

Will you be affected by the Road Tax changes in April 2017?

Purchase a brand new Mazda before April 1st and avoid the Road Tax increases.*

From 1st April 2017, vehicle tax rates will change. The first 12 months will be based on CO2​ emissions irrespective of fuel type with costs ranging from £0 to £2,000. On renewal and thereafter, the rate for petrol and diesel models with a list price less than £40,000 will then attract a flat rate of £140 a year.

Cars reqistered before 1st April 2017 will qualify for current VED rates, even after the new VED bands come into force. So buy and tax a new Mazda before the 1st April 2017 and you could be better off.

The tables below show how Road Tax is currently calculated and how it will be calculated from 1st April 2017 onwards. For full information on Vehicle Exercise Duty changes visit the official Government website here.

*Only applicable for vehicles purchased and taxed before the 1st April 2017
